Michael's Filmography

2007: "I Like Mice" -- My First Paperless Animated Silent Color Test that launched "Michael Igafo-Te'o Film Productions"

2009: "The Time I... Realized My Brother was Different" -- My Own One-Shot Straight-to-HDTV Mini Short Film that My Sister and I did for The Disney Channel

2014: "Untitled Sad Toby Walk Cycle Screen Test" -- My First Traditionally Animated Screen Test which was scanned into my MacBook Pro laptop computer and colored in using "DigiCel FlipBook" software

2015-2016: "One Crazy Date to Roller Skate" My Debut 2D Animated Short Film that is only Tradigital Animated (I.E., rough animation "key drawings" are done "traditionally" using pencil and paper both the penciled background layout sketches and the penciled "rough key drawing" are then scanned into "Adobe Photoshop" for digital clean-up and digital correcting along with "digital background painting" and, in order to recreate "tradigital animation", the inbetweening is actually done by computer on "Adobe Flash" while doing "digital ink & paint" and "digital compositing" then the post-production editing is completed on "Adobe Premiere" software)

2016-2017: "Mike and Michelle's Bowling Date" -- a sequel to "One Crazy Date to Roller Skate" which will be animated using the same "tradigital animation" techniques originally employed in "One Crazy Date to Roller Skate" but, before the voice recording begins, the storyboard sketches will be drawn by computer using "Toon Boom Storyboard Pro" software after the script is made (then approved by Michael's mother) for "animator's sake"!
